Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt buy £35m mansion in France

Couple spotted property from helicopter

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt want to move in before she gives birth in August

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have splashed out £35million on a 35-bedroom chateau on the French Riviera - after spotting it during a helicopter ride.

The couple have viewed more than 100 properties but finally settled on the 1,000 acre estate near Aix-en-Provence when they flew over the region.

Brad, 44, and Ange, 32, are believed to have landed and struck up a deal for the sale within minutes.

'It's absolutely unbelievable,' a source tells the Daily Express. ‘Brad and Angelina are thrilled.

'They love the place and have already been furniture shopping.

'The house is surrounded by a forest so they'll have total privacy.'

The pair hope to move into the mansion - which includes 2 pools, a vineyard, lake and forest - before Angelina gives birth to their twins in August.

They are already parents to Shiloh, 2 today, and adopted Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3.
